A Strange Little Tip

My friends and I discovered this trick when we traveled together recently. When we went on our trip, our group planner made us official looking name tags as a joke and made us wear them. By wearing them, we actually ended up looking like an official tour group.

What made this unique however, was how interested people were in our little "tour group." With a mix of Koreans and foreigners, it looked like quite an odd yet interesting tour group, and we were thus stopped frequently asking how we knew each other or how we found this tour group. At many points at our stops, the owner(s) of the establishment would come out and greet, offering a free private tour or free service.

So, a little Korean travel trick if you're traveling in a group, wear official looking name tags. Who knows, maybe you'll get a free private tour or some extra service as well.
